D4 doesn't seem to be a massive update, seems to be focused more on video, defiantly trying to compete with the 5D Mark II. The other major updates are higher-resolution, 16.2MP, full-frame CMOS sensor and the ability to shoot at 10 frames per second with autofocus. It has a massive amount of smaller tweaks, though.
Or to put it another way
SOON THE FALSE CANON GOD WILL BE CAST DOWN FROM THE GLORIOUS VIDEO THRONE, RISE MY NIKON BROTHERS, THE D4 SHALL LEAD US TO ASCENSION!

I am the most happiest I ever been in the world ever.

the 1D X seems superior...

That feeling when there's been a blizzard since new years and you haven't been able to take a single picture outside.
:(

Professionally done footage from the D4.
Looks good to me, the comments are all slow mo 1080p how does it work?

Goody, the D4 has arrived.
But yeah, it's not like anybody here would be able to afford it

I'm finally retiring my kit 50mm f/1.8 for good, figuring I'll get a 50mm f/1.4 to replace it and get myself to use 35mm film again. I'm planning on going with a Takumar, but I don't know if I should go with the SMC version or the early 8 element Super Takumar (not SMC). Anyone know anything about the lens/opinions?

ISO6400, probably shot in jpeg because of apparent noise reduction

8,549 PostsNikon claimed 1 stop better noise performance than the D3s, so ISO 12800 on the D4 is like ISO 6400 on the D3s.
The difference between the D3 and D3s was 1.5 stops.
Edited:
2.5 stop upgrade from the D3 is pretty good.
-
From this the 1DX seems better, but it's mostly over pretty insignificant stuff, also wasn't the 14 FPS only without autofocus because it locks the mirror up? (Would also mean no viewfinder). I think it was 12 for normal.
Also I'm not sure what the buffer on the 1DX is.
I'm gonna wait for reviews, in particular noise performance samples, before I call this.

It's actually really depressing what the average ~flagship owner~ does with their camera.
I mean, do you really need a D3S to take this kind of picture?

oh there's the lens
-
That kills me a little inside.
-
Doesn't pro camera = loads of views. Or something like that
-
I think it's more that the type of person to unnecessarily buy a 'pro' camera, is also the type of person that goes around spamming favorites and flickr 'award' comments, which facilitates return attention.
-
some of the nex people are really bad too. they take pictures using leica lenses of similar stuff to that.
this for instance was taken with a $3200 lens

I were just in a forest 4 AM in snowy Finland. All alone. Taking pics (results tomorrow).
Thinking about "The blair witch project" didn't really help.
-
well, you outta scream out loud "SA OOT PERSE PELLE YA STUPID WITCH"!
My macduck is burning my lap, help! Struggling to find a solid yet affordable wide angle prime. Here's something for you zoom lens owning kiddos to do. Go through your photos and find the range you shoot at most. For me its 28-35ish. Helps you get an idea of what primes you would use.

Hey any Vancouver photographers down for a meet sometime? I think that would be great, strolling around downtown or through Stanley park
-
I'm in Victoria, does that count?
I'd be up for a meet.
-
Yes.
-
hey, any el p-
no one lives near me. x(
-
Woo, perhaps when the weather improves and the days become longer?
-
The person who has favorite'd the photo in the first link favourites a lot of my photos too, small world ey?
-
Haha it's up to 1.2 million now.
We were actually discussing i_still_believe_in_u a few months ago, in which time it's doubled from 600k favorites.
Edited:
The only thing more depressing are the testimonials written by people (who generally have hilarious photostreams) that have fallen for it.
-
Any reason why my RAW pics are dark as hell on lightroom?
Edited:
Nevermind that, I figured it out.
-
what is it then? just a bot or something? or is it just some guy taking the piss?
-
It's some guy/woman that indiscriminately favorites any and all pictures they come across on flickr to superficially flatter people into returning the 'favor' by looking at and praising his/her pictures. It's a hollow, spammy, numbers game popularity contest that is extremely common among mediocre photographers. They do it to validate their (non-existant) skill with numerical 'stats' to show off to their peers.

I started getting spammed with favs and hollow comments.
